Lads, I'm home since Thursday, I attended all 3 games in France. Had an absolutely amazing time. Met lads from supporters clubs from London, Belfast ,Cork Wexford and a few more places. They were all sound boys out there having a great time supporting the team and country we all love. I'm so depressed at being here instead of Lyon for the match, but after Wednesday's match have real confidence we can do them I'm 100% going over when we win tomorrow for the quarter final. Exciting and extremely nervous times ahead! ybig
Lifted over the turnstile for my first match against West Germany in 89πŸ˜ƒπŸ˜ƒ

Hey guys, wasn't sure where to put this post, so apologies in advance if it annoys anyone.. Had a superb time in France for the 2 weeks on a trip of a lifetime. I really like little momento's/memorabilia from matches I attend and normally a match programme satisfies this, but since there was only a general tournament programme for sale at the games getting something apart from the actual ticket stubs was hard. Fortunately, the Coca Cola plastic cups with the match, venue, and date on them provided me with the little momento I sought. However, it wasn't til after the Sweden match that I noticed these special match day cups existed. Managed to get one for all the games after that so I think its a pretty cool collection to have. Was hoping that someone on here could help me acquire a cup from the Sweden match or even has one to spare to complete my collection. PM me if one of you can help. Much appreciated.

Much as I love to see Viagogo getting done, UEFA's justification for doing so is stupid. Citing "segregation" issues? YEah right, they're just upset someone else is making money off them (not that it's actually costing UEFA anything)

There is a lot of anger against Viagogo who are really just the middle man.
They don't set the prices, the ticket seller does, they just add a percentage fee on top.

I got 4 face value Belgium tickets on it a week before the match, probably because the seller had a conscience. Without Viagogo I wouldn't have seen the match.

There were also lots of tickets being sold below face value, particularly for the knock out stages, not a lot of complaints about that.

Touts are going to sell anyway, at least there are guarantees from Viagogo that you dont get from a tout on the street.

And what about Seatwave & getmein, other resellers which are owned by Ticketmaster, their prices were higher than Viagogo's.

Segregation issues my hole. While we had our official section against France there was no segregation at all. I was right on the edge of the Irish section. To my right was Irish to my left was French including the guy in the seat beside me who was French. Absolutely no segregation there.

same as that. I was the first seat at the steps seperating sections, in row 2. When France scored, they all rushed to the front of the steps right beside me. No issues at all, but segregation issues is a cop out
